3DS's Sizzling Summer: Which Game is Hottest?

Share.

IGN Nintendo wants your thoughts on which summer 3DS title has you most excited. Sound off and win a cool prize!

By Audrey Drake

Day in and day out you hear a lot from the IGN Nintendo team. Now we want to hear from you. What you'll find below is our weekly blogging feature. Here we ask you questions based on recent Nintendo events or games and ask you to blog your thoughts. The best responses will be featured later in the week, and may even win a cool prize. Read on for all the information on this week's blogging challenge!

"The time has come," the walrus said, "To answer IGN Nintendo's Question of the Week!" And since we all know I am, in fact, the walrus, let's get this show on the road. Most of you already know the drill - I'm going to ask you a question, then you're going to blog about it to your heart's content and share the link with me on my IGN blog or Twitter. After that, I'm going to choose a selection of the best entries to promote directly on the 3DS and/or Wii U page, as well as choose our Blogger of the Week (who, in turn, wins a cool prize). Everyone on board? Then on to the question!

To help guide your blogging endeavors, here are the specific questions I'd like you to blog about:

Which 3DS game set to release this summer are you most excited about? Keep in mind that it must already have a summer release date assigned to qualify.

What have you seen/heard about this game that has you so excited? Cool new features? The return of a beloved franchise? Chibi Squall? Sound off!

As succinctly as you can, tell IGN readers why - if they can only buy one 3DS game this summer - this is the one they should pick up.

Got all that? Now all you have to do is go blog it up - just remember to make your submissions no later than Thursday, April 12 at Noon PST.

And to motivate you a bit... you guessed it... we're going to bribe you. As mentioned, the best submissions will be promoted on the IGN 3DS page. Among the blog posts chosen for promotion, Rich and I will be singling ONE out as our Blog of the Week. This chosen blogger will win a download code for one (1) free eShop game. The winner will be able to choose between Pushmo, Mighty Switch Force, and Sakura Samurai: Art of the Sword. If you're chosen, someone from IGN will contact you through e-mail (and your IGN wall), so keep an eye out, and be ready to respond! (And please don't ask us if you've won - if you did, we will be in touch.)

That all sound good? All that's left is to vote in the poll below, start blogging, and check back later this week for the results. Rich and I look forward to reading your entries!

Done blogging? Send us a link through Twitter or our IGN blogs (info below), or leave it in the comments section of this article. In a few days we're going to highlight the best IGN's community has to offer - show us your moves, Koopalings!
